RED BULL MUSIC ACADEMY TOP 10 RISING JAPANESE ELECTRONIC MUSIC PRODUCERS

Words by Mike Sunda : Even ignoring the language barrier, it can be remarkably difficult to find out information about certain strands of electronic music coming out of Japan. As befits an underground scene, the majority of house and techno producers here shy away from over-indulgent displays of self-promotion, taking a low-key attitude towards their releases, events, and the like. Arranged in no particular order, the names that follow might not jump out immediately, but many have already featured on standout mixes and compilations; if there's one thing that's consistent, it's that they all let their tracks do the talking.

YUJI KONDO INTERVIEW ON THE DIFFERENT GROOVES MAGAZINE ITALY

Words by Different Grooves : It's always interesting to rediscover foreign artists who put distinctive signature in their productions. For this interview we had the occasion to have a chat with the Japanese techno and industrial producer YUJI KONDO, focussing on his musical background and his release "RADIATE THE OCEAN FROM MY BACK" recently published on PERC TRAX.

PERC TRAX DEBUTS YUJI KONDO WITH RADIATE THE OCEAN FROM MY BACK EP

YUJI KONDO returns to PERC TRAX for his first full EP on the label after the success of his remix of SAWF's 'MENETE' a year ago. Like Sawf he relentlessly drives forward crafting his own vision of techno, blocking out as many outside influences as possible. Already gaining attention for both his STEVEN PORTER collaborative project and his own DUCEREY ADA NEXINO side-project it is under his own name that Yuji releases his most uncompromising machine works. It is almost pointless describing individual tracks from this 4-track EP, in the same way a cog should be viewed as part of a machine rather than a separate entity, but rest assured Yuji covers everything from martial 4/4 advancements to broken beat experiments here, each wrapped in just enough atmospheric sounds to break up the rhythmic assaults but without ever taken any of their power away. This is one of Yuji's most accomplished and high profile releases to date and comes backed up by a devastating live show which will hopefully be coming to Europe very soon. [TPT063] YUJI KONDO "RADIATE THE OCEAN FROM MY BACK" is available now at many good record stores worldwide.

KEEP OURSELVES FLESH - YUJI KONDO INTERVIEW ON STRAY LANDINGS UK

Words by Stray Landings : You may have run into the work of Japanese sound artist YUJI KONDO whether you know it or not. Whilst the Kansai based producer has had several releases under his birth name, his involvement in leftfield techno scenes runs far deeper, releasing under alias' such as DUCEREY ADA NEXINO and STEVEN PORTER alongside KATSUNORI SAWA. The pair also orchestrate the staggeringly consistent '10 LABEL', an imprint which despite its short discography has managed to attract some of the most sought after names in electronic music, such as MATTHEW HERBERT and ANNE-JAMES CHATON. With a four track EP of dense warehouse techno due out shortly on ALI WELLS' stellar PERC TRAX imprint, we decided it'd be a fitting time to catch up with Kondo to discuss the release, his relationship with Sawa and the Japanese music scene in general.

KATSUNORI SAWA & YUJI KONDO SPLIT VINYL 12" UNDULANT LATITUDE

Birth, Form, Make, Balance, Nature - they lookout over something all from a place higher than the pyramid. The third release is a split single from the label-heads KATSUNORI SAWA and YUJI KONDO, known for the STEVEN PORTER collaborative project. After two various artists' series in 2011 and 2013, the string-pullers finally appear from backroom without disguise. The vinyl labels' artwork by the STEVEN PORTER collaboration. The vinyl labels' design from SHINYA ISHIMURA. Audio mastering by MATT COLTON at the Alchemy Mastering in UK. Distributed by VETO. Concept & Direction by Katsunori Sawa and Yuji Kondo. Limited vinyl edition with the centre-labels' artwork. [TEN003EP] Katsunori Sawa & Yuji Kondo "UNDULANT LATITUDE" is available now at many good record stores worldwide.

DUCEREY ADA NEXINO SOLO VINYL EP FROM GENESA RECORDS SERBIA

Official Release Information : GENESA RECORDS is proud to presend the debut solo EP of the Japanese techno wizard DUCEREY ADA NEXINO aka YUJI KONDO. Whether as Ducerey Ada Nexino, Yuji Kondo or in the collab-duo STEVEN PORTER (with Katsunori Sawa), this producer and co-founder of the notorious 10 LABEL imprint, has been making floor shaking tunes for a while now and gaining a lots of attention, proven by appearances on labels like SEMANTICA RECORDS or PERC TRAX. "CYCLES, CHILDREN AND ISLANDS EP" represents the culmination of his work under the 'Ducerey Ada Nexino' moniker. On board are 3 originals, a remix by the label-head SCALAMERIYA and a digital, 'bonus' ambient / noise track. All of that, beautifully packed on a transparent silver grey vinyl.

FUTURE TERROR'S DJ NOBU FEATURES THE STEVEN PORTER ON BITTA 2ND VINYL

The Japan's Best Kept Secret, DJ NOBU is a familiar name amongst the most underground, most hardcore and most appreciative dance music fans in Japan. His home is the urban ground of Chiba city, which is located about an hour and a half drive away from Tokyo, and it's not a big city on the map of club world. DJ Nobu, however, is a familiar name amongst the most underground, most hardcore and most appreciative dance music fans in Japan. He is particularly respected for the "Future Terror" party, which he has been running regularly with other local DJs he trusts since 2001 in his home town. This party is organised in a truly D.I.Y. manner at local clubs and other available spaces. They sometimes invite guests from overseas - not for the value of their names, but for their music, of course - and that includes Mike Clark, Terrence Parker, Luke Solomon, Marcel Dettmann, Marcel Fengler and Steffi among others. As "Future Terror" became a place of pilgrimage for Japan's underground party freaks, DJ Nobu's reputation spread through the enthusiasts' word of mouth. (Words from the Future Terror official website.) - - - - - DJ Nobu's new independent record label BITTA features KATSUNORI SAWA & YUJI KONDO on the second vinyl release. The simply designed black vinyl includes two tracks, "Canadian Bellfields" by the Steven Porter and "Untitled" by DJ Nobu. Outstanding techno 12inch from the label that released the IORI retrospective CD. Distributed by Phonica Records UK.

Taken from Juno Plus review : INNER SURFACE MUSIC welcome a new cast of heavy hitters to the hardened UK techno label. The second release this year from TOM DICICCO and AND's Wood Bison inspired Inner Surface Music maintains the Various Artists theme of the label's debut transmission which featured music from AnD, Sunil Sharpe, Ascion and Truss. Titled simply EP2, the forthcoming record welcomes ISM debuts from ferocious Japanese producer YUJI KONDO (aka DUCEREY ADA NEXINO), Spanish deep techno purveyor NX1, Repitch Recordings co-founder D. CARBONE, and a new track from TOM DICICCO. The release marks what has been a profile rising year for Kondo, who in 2013 has remixed the likes of Sawf, DJ Skirt and Fifth Wall's Hound Scales, while also readying the release of the Replay EP on his own 10 Label, which features tracks from Perc, Matthew Herbert, Dalhous and his Steven Porter collaboration with Katsunori Sawa. D.Carbone's AnD-esque "Asynthetic" represents a continuation of the ongoing working relationship between Inner Surface Music and Repitch Recordings (AnD first appeared on Repitch last year with the Features / Vol 3 EP) while NX1 delivers a breakbeat styled techno banger "ISI". - - - - - [INNER006] official release-date has set on 29th November 2013. Limited transparent red vinyl 12" edition. Must check.

The end of November 2013, finally reveled. Uruguayan minimal techno driving force the Par Recordings' vinyl arm, PAR WAX presents its sixth release as a vinyl only project [PWR06] "MAN NO SHADOW". This deeply personal record is perhaps the climax of GEORGE PAAR's (ex: Par Recordings, Eklero Records, Gynoid Audio) and YUJI KONDO's (ex: 10 Label, Perc Trax, Semantica Records) relationship as artists which started approximately two years ago. This record has brought together two artists responsible for the direction of their own label collectives with a particular and intimate vision of electronic music. Official release-date has set on 22nd November 2013. Vinyl only.

THE VINYL FACTORY SELECT THE 10 BEST VINYL RELEASES THIS WEEK

An independent British music & arts enterprise, The Vinyl Factory select the 10 Label's latest release [TEN002EP] V.A. "Replay" (feat. PERC / DALHOUS / MATTHEW HERBERT / STEVEN PORTER) as one of the best vinyl releases this week (18th November 2013). Reviewed by James Hammond from The Vinyl Factory - - - - - Two years since 10 Label's first release in their Various Artists series and here's the second installment. Thankfully it's more of the same - a smorgasbord of electronic stylings and ideas from some key movers and shakers in the genre. Perc kicks things off with a business-as-usual drum pattern assault and shifting frictions that keep on giving, with Dalhous changing gears to down-tempo velcro-inflected beats and choral ambience. Side B with Matthew Herbert and Steven Porter is no slouch either - 'Tax Returns' is Herbert at his most rhythmic and playful and 'Fundamental Belief' brings hip-hop into the mix. Four distinctive slabs of sounds and surprisingly cohesive for the range covered, here's hoping the next installment isn't so far off. - - - - - [TEN002EP] V.A. "REPLAY" is available now at many good record stores worldwide.

Morn, even and next day. Man, woman and child. Can you see the rainbow there on a raining day... The welcome return of 10 LABEL the Japanese imprint co-founded by KATSUNORI SAWA and YUJI KONDO, from their first 'Mu EP' in 2011. TEN002EP is the second release in the various artists series. 'REPLAY' brings together the visions of PERC, DALHOUS, MATTHEW HERBERT and STEVEN PORTER. However, there is a dramatic development in four artists' dexterous works. You discover that now you are standing on the centre of stark contrasts among all four tracks, with a photograph and your breath. The vinyl is adorned with a stunning artwork by London's photographer JONE REED. The print-design by SHINYA ISHIMURA.

There is a thrilling coexistence of various culture and music styles in the European-central city of Berlin as well as in the Asian city of Tokyo. MERKUR SCHALLPLATTEN is based in both cities. This schizophrenic situation gives us the privilege to exchange creative processes from one culture to another and allows us to develop an unorthodox blend of music that points into the future. MERKUR SCHALLPLATTEN was started by SHINGO SUWA in 2008. He is a producer/DJ who moved from Tokyo to Berlin in late 2005 to start his own label. Affected by Berlins infectious techno scene he started his own label to release music which carries as well his Asian roots as the new European influences. MERKUR SCHALLPLATTEN releases its 6th EP which has a new, different approach compared to the last EPs for which it has gained much praise during the past 5 years. The A-Side "THEME OF MERCURY" was produced by label founder SHINGO SUWA and AKIRAHAWKS, who is known for the unique Re-edit label HOUSE MANNEQUIN. The two of them mainly perform at Homopatik in Berlin. "Theme Of Mercury" is a hypnotic track which was created with some broken old synth and sends your mind on an intergalactic odyssey, before diving into the deepest ocean on a journey to forget about space and time. The first track of the B-side is a remix from DUCEREY ADA NEXINO aka YUJI KONDO, also known for his work under both his own name and as a half of STEVEN PORTER on SEMANTICA RECORDS. The remix fastens up the mix by repetitive pulsating synths, giving the beat an industrial modern atmosphere and letting the crowd heating up. The second track on the flip-side, called "BARSOOM", is a solo production by Shingo and completes the whole package. The functional work of a cut up 303 acid line with raw bass and a running groove creates an insistent and deeply pressured feeling. Vinyl only, limited to 300 copies.

STEVEN PORTER GIVES THIS AS A GIFT WITHOUT A LETTER TO THE 10 LABEL

Sinister duo STEVEN PORTER present a special mix without a letter to their own 10 Label. (Text from Juno Plus UK) - - - - - New DJ mix from the Steven Porter (ex: 10 Label, Weevil Neighbourhood, Semantica Records) also known as Katsunori Sawa and Yuji Kondo. You can listen to the 60 minutes mix on their SoundCloud.

[5WALL007] "FEMEN" is the second EP from HOUND SCALES on FIFTH WALL RECORDS the Brooklyn imprint he runs with DIVVORCE. A dedication to the powerful women that have sculpted his life, the release sees the artist setting out to create the story of their impact on him by distilling these and other major influences into a techno format. The result is two originals blending Amen-style jungle rhythms with collapsed industrial squeals, each with its own sense of beauty clawing upwards towards the surface. On the remix front, Japanese producer and 10 LABEL head honcho YUJI KONDO delivers an incredibly complex, layered interpretation of "A CLIQUE OF TOUGH WOMEN", while MIRA and OPAL TAPES affiliate BLEACHING AGENT pits the elegiac chords of the original "THROATED" against a repeated, mangled vocal motif, imbuing the remix with nostalgia while remaining an effective dancefloor instrument. The Femen EP will see its release on vinyl and digitally September 24th 2013 via Fifth Wall Records. (Text by Tailored Communication in Germany)

August 2013, SLUDGE-TAPES, Tokyo's unique independent cassette tape label returns with the Sludge-Tapes' owner MICLODIET (ex: Sludge-Tapes, Duenn) and the Japanese enigmatic two-heads STEVEN PORTER (ex: 10 Label, Weevil Neighbourhood, Semantica Records).

Don't miss. - - - - - 'Six years ago, Enrique Mena started a complicated journey that nevertheless has been nothing but satisfactory so far: he created a label (with one foot in the coldest brands of IDM and the other in experimental techno), and shaped it after his own image. He called it Semántica Records, and today, over 50 titles form one of the most courageous, incorruptible and cerebral catalogues in recent European electronic music. Based in Madrid, Semántica discovered, or rediscovered, Spanish techno talents like Arcanoid (alias DJ Muerto), DJ F (alias Ideograma), Annie Hall, and Boris Divider. Not to mention his own productions as Svreca (most notoriously "Obscur", of which there are six different vinyls with remixes and variations), the releases by respected underground artists such as Vladislav Delay, E.R.P., Ed Chamberlain, Surgeon, and Kero. He also discovered new international talent like Grischa Lichtenberger, Skirt, and Silent Servant, before they started to roll out on other labels.'

REAKTIVATE FIRST VINYL ATTACKS WITH ASTRONOMICAL TELEGRAM

22nd July 2013, finally the Techno imprint from Portugal, REAKTIVATE released their first 12inch vinyl [RKTV001] ASTRONOMICAL TELEGRAM "NEAR - HEART OBJECT" with three remixes by DEAD SOUND & VIDEOHEAD (ex: Perc Trax, Gynoid Audio), STANISLAV TOLKACHEV (ex: M_rec Ltd, Fullpanda Records) and DUCEREY ADA NEXINO (ex: 10 Label, Genesa Records). Reaktivate has founded in 2012 in Porto, Portugal. Owned by Quantic Spectroscopy, MuteMan and Simao Janela. Nuno Mendonca as the label manager and main St. as A&R. Reaktivate urges from the necessity of spreading underground, urban, industrial, electronic music to the masses. Focused on quality and originality they focus on Techno music without labeling any subgenre. For this landmark release, Reaktivate upholds it's tendency to be a platform that combines both newcomers and established artists in techno. Up and coming Colombian talent DANIEL RESTREPO (ASTRONOMICAL TELEGRAM) represents a strong bet that we feel is justified, and here he is met by three (well, actually four) artists with proven track records in modern techno with an eye beyond the functional. Restrepo's original, "NEAR - HEART OBJECT", is a rugged, authentic-sounding piece of pure techno that seems to place the listener in some sort of debris-strewn outer space industrial complex. The most immediately noticeable characteristic is the punishing industrial-strength kick drum work, that sustains an urgent and stress-inducing composition of shrieks and bells underscored by a chilling drone. The whole thing is a simple but effective updated take on classic british techno in the Surface and Blueprint vein. The remixes are a pan-national snapshot of left-of-centre techno. From England, Perc Trax stalwarts DEAD SOUND & VIDEOHEAD accomplish the feat of creating a heavy yet funky rework that somehow belies their hip-hop influences. You can almost imagine a robot breakdance contest being soundtracked by their remix. Japanese rising star DUCEREY ADA NEXINO, with releases to that name on Genesa and Par Recordings, has been making a bit of a rumble with his YUJI KONDO alias, achieving release slots on Semantica and Perc Trax, and his vision of 'Near-Heart Object' is actually more reminiscent of his work under that name. You know what this means : a blistering industrial-techno rendition based on tribal syncopation and distortion, punctuated by whipping snares that adds an even stronger urgency to the bell-sounding motif of the original. A floor destroyer, for sure. Finally, STANISLAV TOLKACHEV approaches Astronomical Telegram's work in an appropriately titled 'Heavy and Unusual' fashion. Tolkachev hails from Russia, but he really seems to operate in a world of his own, demonstrated through a high-octane/high-BPM reading of the original. Stanislav states that this is the rhythm of his life, and through it we are presented with an analogic sound-world of mantra-like qualities, intertwining propulsive drum-work, disorienting space pulses and pin-prick bleeps constantly swirling around each other. Light emerges from this vortex in the form of swelling pads, providing an emotional rush that will stick with the listener long after the track is over. A fitting mind-warping finale for a special release of which REAKTIVATE is immensely proud of.

SAWF MENETE FEAT. YUJI KONDO REMIX ON PERC TRAX LONDON

July 2013, the enigmatic and spirited artist SAWF (ex: Perc Trax, Modal Analysis, M-Rec) returns to PERC TRAX with a great remix from oddball the 10 LABEL artist YUJI KONDO also known as DUCEREY ADA NEXINO and one half of STEVEN PORTER. Early support from Tommy Four Seven, Len Faki, Dave Clarke, Truss, AnD, Phase, Go Hiyama, Phil Kieran and many more producers. - - - SAWF, Perc Trax's most mysterious artist returns to the label he calls home after EP's for Modal Analysis, Audio Assault and M-Rec. This is his first new material for Perc Trax since his well received album 'Flaws' in 2011 and shows him introducing new influences to his trademark grinding, industrial sound. First up is title track "MENETE", built around a 16th note synth line that recalls everything from classic EBM to more modern synth-led techno such as the recent Sleeparchive EP on Tresor. Closing the a-side is "TOOLIO", a far too modest title for a track that is far from a disposable techno tool. An expert exercise in building percussion, this is closest to the sound people know from Sawf, but the best example of it yet. Opening up the b-side is a remix from Yuji Kondo; know best for his work under both his own name and as half of Steven Porter on Semantica and TEN out of Japan. The remix is everything you'd expect from Yuji. A wall of broken-beat noise topped off by cut up vocals samples and a fluid, ever-changing arrangement. Closing the 12" is "DIIN". A deeper, almost house-like cut from Sawf, building on a probing bass guitar line, proving he can do subtle and atmospheric as well as he does tough and confrontational. (Text by Perc Trax UK) - - - Official release date is 15th July 2013 for vinyl. Digital download will be set a few weeks after that. You can purchase [TPT059] "MENETE" at the PERC TRAX BANDCAMP online store or vinyl record stores worldwide. Digital Download will be out after a few weeks on JUNO DOWNLOADS, BEATPORT, AMAZON and more.

THE SECOND LIMITED EDITION FOR MU EP FROM 10 LABEL

Our birds returning... You remember a vinyl has already became legend and commanded a premium in the vinyl world. It's the 10 LABEL' first release "MU EP" [TEN001EP] incl. ANCIENT METHODS, ANNE-JAMES CHATON, SAWLIN and STEVEN PORTER. The second limited edition comes to here now... Nothing will come of nothing, but living. This time edition is different design from the first press. Artwork by SYL ANASSE, Design by SHINYA ISHIMURA, Vinyl Cutting & Mastering by NAWEED AHMED from Whitfield Mastering London. Distributed by VETO UK. (The first limited edition has been released in 2011, distributed by KOMPAKT.) - - - - - Ancient Methods, Steven Porter, Anne-James Chaton and Sawlin carve up scorched techno terrain on the 'Mu' EP for Kyoto, Japan's Ten label. Ancient Methods lead the brave troops with the standard-bearing, boot-shaking march of 'Confused Voltage' and Steven Porter - the curiously Anglicised moniker of label heads Katsunori Sawa and Yuji Kondo - drag us thru the terrifying, mechanized mud and guts churn of 'Deed'. Raster Noton's Anne-James Chaton relays the encrypted instructions of 'Événment27' on the flip and Sawlin pounds out the the final battle coda of 'Painfull'. (Reviewed by BOOMKAT UK) - - - - - It's no secret that yours truly's spider sense tingles whenever the words Ancient Methods are uttered. So I'm immediately all over this record on Japanese 10 Label. AM open the EP with the military industrial techno march of Confused Voltage. A steady stomper of a tune that seemingly keeps growing with intensity. Up next is Steven Porter which is actually an alias of Katsunori Sawa and Yuji Kondo whom founded the 10 Label. Their track is a real beaut, full of infinite delay and reverb that's like shards of crystal growing out of the speaker cones. Anne-James Chaton's (Raster Noton / Semantica) effort has stumbling kicks and manipulated vocals/ sound poetry which would really mash your head in a club. Finally Sawlin (Perc Trax) round things off with a raw industrial leaning techno jam. All quality gear but I reckon the Steven Porter track is the one I'm feeling most. (Reviewed by NORMAN RECORDS UK)

SLYDEX JAPAN TOUR AT CLUB METRO KYOTO JAPAN

Steven Porter Live: Wednesday 1st May 2013, in the middle of Japan's long holiday the Golden Week, SLYDEX also known as KONDAKTOR (ex: Modal Analysis, Further Records) will come to Japan for the first time. His first Asia tour has set on: 27th April at Organik in Hunting, Taiwan / 1st May at Club Metro in Kyoto, Japan / 2nd May at Seco in Tokyo, Japan. YUJI KONDO (ex: 10 Label, Semantica Records, Genesa Records) will play the new live set with KATSUNORI SAWA (ex: 10 Label, Ai Records, Weevil Neighbourhood) under their collaboration name STEVEN PORTER on 1st May at CLUB METRO in Kyoto. This event called "RAWM", organized by a new Japanese underground music label IL Y A Records. George Papageorgopoulos aka Slydex has been crafting the decks for almost a decade establishing himself as a prominent figure in the Athenian party scene. His dj sets vary: from deeply techno to sleazy, dirty and funky; from comfortably dark and ambient to uncomfortably sensual and grimmy. He enjoys mixing different styles and trying different sounds each time: from industrial techno to chicago house and back. In the record label that he co-owns, "Modal Analysis", the releases are a blend of modern techno with experimental approach in order to promote the new sophisticated sound coming from Greece. The label's gloomy aesthetic examines the structural impact of sound within space. In the end of 2012 he made his debut release as a music producer with a cassette at the Seattle based Further Records under the alias of Kondaktor: the maestro that controls the musician's performance and manipulates the feelings of the crowds. Kondaktor's distorted approach enhance a mix of experimental tonalities that resemble those coming from a concrete mysterious setting, with electroacoustic influences, build in a low-fi aesthetic. In actual spaces, he has been organizing the "Reform" party series in Athens along with fellow DJs and he has recorded vocals for several different projects. You can listen to his Slydex/Kondaktor mixes via the undermentioned url links. Don't miss.

DEMDIKE STARE + DJ NOBU + STEVEN PORTER AT UNIT TOKYO JAPAN

Steven Porter Live: Tuesday 19th March 2013, day before holiday, DEMDIKE STARE (ex: Modern Love, Dead-Cert, Pre-Cert Home Entertainment) will arrive again in Tokyo Japan. Lancastrian experimental venture, made up of Sean Canty and Miles Whittaker. Their spooky sound arrived at a moment in which there was an upswing in the dark stuff across the whole spectrum of electronic music. Demdike Stare's early series of releases on Modern Love was a prismatic refraction of the possibilities of the hauntological, found-sound realm. Ghostly, darkness, evil, erosion, rhythm, pervasive, bizarre, incredibility, generate, against, satanic, murder, aural approximation and apocalypse... Their most recent release "Elemental" is a compilation of four EPs released over the past few months - Crysanthemum, Violetta, Rose and Iris - but it feels haphazard in comparison to the impeccable pacing they've shown previously: there's little thematic continuity across these four EPs, and there's just as little cohesion with Elemental, which feels like they've thrown everything at the wall and let the splattered remnants drip down and form whatever patterns they please. Demdike Stare have sounded like they're trying to be scary rather than creating tension through unfamiliarity and feral weirdness. Modern Love is a record label based in Manchester, UK. In recent years, they have released records by Demdike Stare, Andy Stott, Claro Intelecto, Deepchord Presents Echospace, Pendle Coven, MLZ and others. Very unique deep sound music label. Also, Modern Love has three associated imprints: Young Americans, Hate and Daphne. From this country, the massive impact underground party Future Terror's boss - "Japan's best kept secret" - DJ NOBU (ex: Future Terror, Bitta) and the STEVEN PORTER (ex: 10 Label, Weevil Neighbourhood, Semantica Records) that German electronic music magazine Debug called "Masterpiece". Yuji Kondo will play with Katsunori Sawa a.k.a. EOC (ex: Ai Records, Weevil Neighbourhood) under the collaboration name STEVEN PORTER. Don't miss their new sets. Should go to Unit.

DUCEREY ADA NEXINO SULLIVAN REMIXES LP FROM FACH BERLIN

FACH LABEL comes back with a full volume album. Yuji Kondo alias DUCEREY ADA NEXINO's previous release in February 2012 "ORLY / SULLIVAN EP" [FACH021] has been echoed from many DJs and listeners. This time, the second track "Sullivan" has re-mixed again into the stunning variations with completely different characters by various techno producers from members of "NEW" Fach Label's family in Europe.

Ducerey Ada Nexino's track "Sullivan" has remixed by himself and reborn for more dance floor tracks as both part one and two. More techno than before. But two carries his initial taste and feeling such like the acute angle. Chris Page's over-dark voice complex into somewhere in the black visual fields and goes out of that and comes into this again and again. Off set body-worker. Hollow Mind re-sculptings the original into the most ghost-like stranger in the LP with dazzling sonic nuances. Urbano's effective synthesis dubbed 4/4 wall of pattering stripped percussion, nicely power drums and more minimal slippy composition of vintage. It's petrifying desert doom refrain with nobody-claps, underground-high, mud-party dancefloors, driving compression chamber of remix track by Daegon. Ixel's straight killer low-wears the monster's cape and makes laser flashy around the rugged kick bass drums. Similarly melody and filtering cloudy or dropping of atmospheric material into your dream-coat and giving driving punches with compressed impact - intense form of dancefloor pressure, great rework has presented by Ozka. The German term Fach has plenty of meanings. On the one hand it means a division, a case or a pigeonhole and on the other hand it describes a skilled person or specialist. Fach Label founded by Thomas Dahms and is today operated by Thomas Dahms and Björn Spielmann, who are supported by a team of web designers, photographers and artists. The headquarter is based in Berlin, Germany. Keep eye on their activities in 2013. You can purchase [FACH024] "Sullivan Remixes LP" on Beatport digital download online store worldwide.

DJ SKIRT VS YUJI KONDO ON SEMANTICA RECORDS MADRID

A new techno talent from Birmingham, Bethany DeMoss also known as SKIRT (ex: Horizontal Ground, Semantica Records, Perc Trax) has produced a new brilliant track "TUMULTO" for one of the few truly underground techno labels, SEMANTICA RECORDS in Madrid. Bethany has been djing and working behind the scenes in underground UK techno for the best part of a decade now. Skirt's debut 12inch was released on Spanish label Subsist and her Horizontal Ground debut EP "In The Meadow Under The Stars" was one of the best release on the label so far with the special occluded moods and atmosphere. Semantica Records' first release was in 2006, at the height of the minimal techno explosion, but the label founder Enrique Mena a.k.a. SVRECA (ex: Semantica Records, Zooloft, Our Circula Sound) decided to set up a label as a means to communicate with the outside world and having secured the services of well-known names like ERP and Vladislav Delay others followed, and artists like Regis, Orphx and Female have remixed other artists on the label. Semantica's approach is the direct opposite of almost all labels that slavishly follow a pre-ordained micro-genre. Under the circumstance like vinyl and cd formats are now an 80% collectors market, Semantica gains enormous supports of the underground sound music fans and artists in the world. This time, [SEMANTICA 27] Skirt "Tumulto" includes 2 remixes by SHIFTED (ex: Avian, Mote-Evolver, Prologue) and YUJI KONDO a.k.a. Ducerey Ada Nexino (ex: 10 Label, Genesa Records, Par Recordings).

The final part of ADALOVELACED series comes to here. [GENESA073] "ADALOVELACED III" has released from Serbian techno label GENESA RECORDS on February 4th 2013. Yuji Kondo also known as DUCEREY ADA NEXINO made a heavy quality EP with big four. He has started to producing the Adalovelaced series since late 2009 with his original concept for Genesa Records. In the first and second of the series, many underground techno producers such as Seph (ex: Dumb-Unit, 11:00 a.m., Cityfox), Mekas (ex: Der Hut Records, Par Recordings, Cirque Du Minimaliste), Splatter (ex: Frucht, Der Hut Records, Jato Unit), Scalameriya (ex: Genesa Records, Eminor Records, Planet Rhythm Records) and many others have entered as the remixer and the both EPs have supported by Monoloc (ex: CLR, Smallroom Music, Sleaze Records) and Rebekah (ex: Naked Lunch, 8 Sided Dice, Stolen Moments) on the CLR Podcast by Chris Liebing. This time Yuji Kondo develops his new electronic sounds on several brilliant colours now more than ever. The first track "Levitation #94" completes a floor-burning set with brutally overdrived kickbass and into the deeply underground tunnel, more precise drums in a straight line, more howling, more setting high explosives, "Number Tracti". He pulls us through crisp rhythmic assaults and rough-plays his broken feedback boosters on the third track "Hemistich", takes a new turn "Farewell Cloak" with industrial stepper in frozen atmosphere, the most brilliant stuff in the EP. Strong 4-track EP from Japan. Original artwork by Yuji Kondo. It's proper for the concluding episode of a series.

DINO SABATINI SHAMAN'S PATH LP RELEASE TOUR AT CONPASS OSAKA JAPAN

Ducerey Ada Nexino Live: Friday, February 22nd 2013, Outis Music's boss DINO SABATINI (ex: Prologue, Fullpanda Records, Outis Music) comes to Osaka in Japan with his latest album "Shaman's Path" from Prologue in Germany. Dino Sabatini is a DJ, producer and sound designer, he gives the project "MODERN HEADS" birth together with his partner GIANLUCA MELONI. His solo-debut EP in 2008, "No More EP", inaugurates the Prologue label based in Munich, the record gets enthusiastic reviews all over the worldwide press with a renowned magazine such as De:Bug describing it as "Techno masterpiece". Again, his second release "In Vaders EP", still on Prologue imprint, reaches the most important techno djs charts whom regularly playlist both its sides. Within few weeks since the two releases, Dino Sabatini appears djing at Prologue label night at Berghain club, in Berlin as well as in many other highlighted clubs such as Panorama Bar - Tresor - Suicide Circus - Mikz. His 2010 work on Prologue, a double EP titled "Daughter of Phorsys" and conceived almost like an album split in two clearly different volumes, is the result of months spent in his Berlin-based studio, researching for a new level of sonorities that would underline a defined personality which blends dark techno with an industrial noise touch surrounded by hypnotic sequences. A mature product which Resident Advisor, Fact magazine and Beatport don't estate to review as one of the most capturing in its kind. Paul Clarke made the remark about his latest album in Resident Advisor's Reviews, "A PhD in advanced techno would probably be an advantage when listening to Dino Sabatini however. For whether as half of Modern Heads with Gianluca Meloni or the solo artist behind such tracks as 2008's "No More," the Italian producer's dark and austere techno is as determinedly highbrow as it is defiantly hard work. His decision to base 2010's Daughter Of Phorsys EP around the Greek gods showed a man clearly unafraid of accusations of pretentiousness. His debut album is similarly conceptual, exploring both the idea of the shaman and his own interpretation of African rhythms. Africa is hardly uncharted territory for Western dance music, the continent's traditional polyrhythmic percussion having been purloined by everyone from Leftfield to DJ Gregory and the entire Afro house movement. But Sabatini's approach is much different to simply chucking djembe samples over some loops. Indeed, apart from the syncopated drum patterns it's initially hard to discern any ethnic influences at all.". Yuji Kondo alias DUCEREY ADA NEXINO (ex: 10 Label, Genesa Records, Semantica Records) also comes back from that new year countdown gig and plays his new liveset for "Shaman's Path" release tour. Do not miss this event.
